Thank you for your attention to this matter! #NoKings

AOC during Zohran for Mayor rally: "There are people out there who say, 'If you go out and make this endorsement, your political career will be over.' And to that I say: I don't care. We will never get to a better place if everyone is just worried about themselves. If it's over, so be it."

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday. This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

Literally the Russian flag in the post. Two of them

Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

Anyone who has ever lived in LA county will not be surprised it was the sheriff's department that escalated

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

HOLY SHIT, Philly showed up strong for No Kings Day! This is what democracy looks like! 🙏💪

Gilead in FORT WORTH, TX #NoKingsDay

Dallas turned out with at least 10,000 marching for #NoKingsDay

A reminder to reporters, when historians look back on this moment with the president throwing himself a military parade and the people throwing No Kings rallies across America, the media sources raving about the former and sneering at the latter are going to be quoted by name. This is your legacy!

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

This video shows what happened to Sen. Padilla after they forcibly removed him from Kristi Noem's press conference. He's given orders from the officers that would cause him to smash his face, then pushed to the ground and handcuffed. Via: x.com/elex_michael...

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

holy shit -- GOP Rep. Mike Turner tries to "help out" Hegseth by getting him to confirm that the Pentagon does not in fact have plans to take Greenland by force, but Hegseth instead more or less testifies that yep, they have devised plans for that

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo. It’s cowardice.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”

Senator Alex Padilla clearly idenfied himself before he was placed in handcuffs — Noem: “Nobody knew who he was, he didn’t say who he was…”

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

Hey Donald it’s been two weeks…. Since you said you’d do something in two weeks to force Russia to the table. You aren’t… you’re not… chickening out right? Nah

Rewording my earlier post. RFK Jr will be testifying before Congress. I am interested in what experts and others think would be the best way to leverage this time and opportunity for the public good. If you were behind the dais for this hearing, what would you do? What do you want to see asked?

Democracy is strong and functioning in Minnesota.

I suspect in the days ahead we will hear a large number of people saying publicly what no one has been saying publicly. I suspect everyone reading this knows what I am referring to. A POTUS who falsely accuses Democratic leaders of paying for a military invasion of the United States is a madman.

ABC News has cut ties with its senior national correspondent Terry Moran after he posted that Stephen Miller is a “world-class hater” who “eats his hate.” Kudos to Moran for having the courage to speak the truth — and screw ABC News for not standing behind him and backing his right to free speech.

Truth-tellers, not rioters. Protect these two men at all costs. “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history.” “John Lewis said make good trouble… that means make trouble on behalf of democracy.”

She was right.

Breaking: ABC News says senior national correspondent Terry Moran "has been suspended pending further evaluation." This since-deleted tweet is the reason for the suspension:

If you're a New Yorker who follows me—here's my ask of you: 1. Vote @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social for Mayor by Ranking him #1 2. Do Not Rank Cuomo for any reason whatsoever 3. Tell everyone you know to do steps 1 and 2 above Election day is June 24. Early voting on June 14. Spread the word! Let's go!
